ministry," dated August 20, 1997.

     See the revised information [in brackets] below, in the second,
fourth and fifth paragraphs.  

(Second paragraph)
     Now  the church's communication ministry will receive a financial
boost thanks to Frazier's generosity and gifts for money management.
Executive Director Curt Miller recently received a $555 check as the
[annual distribution from a permanent fund] she established for the
Office of Communication.  

(Fourth paragraph)
     The Elizabeth Ann Frazier Fund was begun about 10 years ago by
the April 1997 retiree. She started the fund with money from a personal
inheritance. Over the years she socked away more money into the
[permanent fund] with the Christian Church Foundation. 

(Fifth paragraph)
     The fund pays out at 5 percent of its market value every year, she
said. And there are no strings attached to the annual [distribution]. "I did
it to help promote the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)."
